Suggestion for quickNote

HI,
I have a suggestion for the quicknote feature here. As cool as it is to send quick notes to ppl, there should be a feature in your account to turn it off if you don't want ppl disturbing you while playing games or such things. YOu can already un in your account settings where you will not get mass quick notes from users, (notes to All Users). You can also ignore users. Why not have another check box in here where you can uncheck if you don't want quick notes from Anybody. We should have a right to our privacy on here. It's certainly nicer than just ignoring them like my wife does, and I am at times times tempted to.

Just another suggestion, when you make changes here.

I don't like that idea. Other poeple may want to talk to you sometime and can't reach you.

Yes, but that's their choice. You can still send them private mail. But that's why it's now added, albeit 4 months later.

something that i think would be cool in theory, i have no idea about practise coz im thick an know nothing? lol, anyway, it'd be good if you could choose more than one person to send the same message too. sometimes there's a few people that i'm talking to about the same thing. it'd just make life easier? for me,

oh! it was something I was thinking too..., it will b cool... but lets give them a bit of time... I think, they have lots and lots of suggestions and well, while they work in others, they are repplying to ones that haven't made yet, I think we should be a bit patient don't we?

Neh, I don't think it's a good idea. I mean, if u just want to chat between 2 or 3 other ppl, then use MSN or AIM. Besides, if that feature is implimented, this will make it more challenging for new comers to the sight to meet new ppl because they will all be having their buddy chats and that's all.

well, it also would be dificult for editing the webpage making a check list box... also, I think it would not be posible to do check boxes... appart of cluttering the page, it will make it dificult to choose user names...

I am not in favor of people turning off all quicknotes all the time. What is the point of having this feature if you can't carry on conversations?

However, I would like to be able to turn them off temporarily while playing Blingo so I am not tempted to waste game time reading quicknotes. It would be a lot easier to turn quicknotes off and then on again after playing the game if you could do that r right on the main page instead of having to go into your profile and preferences.
